Walk in natureoutdoor activity (This is a link to the document, but you can also read it below)

This is a suggestion of an outdoor activity. The students will practise problemsolving and teambuilding. This Is a good way to make a walk in nature more interesting and fun! As you walk along a trailyou will make 4 stops where you do the activities divided into teams. After each stop all the students walk together as a group.

After the walk all teams should be rewarded. Maybe one team for best cooperation, one team for the most positive attitude, one team for the best spelling and so on…

These activities can be used at any time. Just a little equipmen tis needed; a clock wich can measure 60 seconds, a pencil and a paper for each team anda rope. Any rope with the length ofapproximately 10 meters will do .

Enjoy your walk in nature!
